The Central Traiic ASsDriaIion and the
Interstate Commerce Hili.

CHICAGO, Feb. 3-Thc managers of the
Central Traffic Association held meeting
in Commissioner Blanchard's Off ce ycstcr-
day. There was large attendance. but
as the Interstate Commerce bill, which
was to have furnished the principal theme
for discus sion, had not been signed by
President Cleveland, it was deemed mad
visable to debate the bill, or to take any
action with reference to it until
it had become a law. 1t was decided,
however, to refer all matters pertain
ing to the bill to the executive committee
of the association, which is to meet at
Cleveland rcXt Tuesday. A resolution
was adopted pledging the roads en-
braccd in the association to the abso-
lutte maintenance of rates. 1t was
also resolved that it was the sense of
the meeting that the present association
and pool contracts in existence thereun-
der be continued, and obligations involved
therein be carried out in good faith until
the Interstate Commerce bill becomes
operative.

An item in yesterdays EAGLE with refer
ence to the discovery Of cracked cast iron
arch which purported to have been ordered
for the Rouse g. Blackwelder building may
have been misleading. There are no cast
iron arches in the plans The truth is there
are few buildings which equal the Sedgwick
block for strength and durability to be found
in any city, The plans and specifications
were gotten out with particular reference to
strength. So much material was specified
that the cost Of the structure exceeded by
twenty thousand dollars the estimates Of the
owners The architects said the cost would
be materially lessened by the use of cheaper
material, but the owners wouldn't listen to
any proposition which ,meant anything else
than the strongest and most durable build
